Suspect Suspect - Video Suspect - Demeanor/actions/was there someone else

[Ghostwheel]

Thread for discussing the actions of the suspect in the recovered video from the front door. Where he m ight have come from, reasons for what was done, might there be more than one.

I'm not positive there was a second (or third etc.) perp, but i lean toward more than 1.

first, if it's true something had already happened inside when we see lantana man on the porch, and he's preparing an exit via the front door, then it seems likely either someone was with her, or she was incapacitated.

second, if this is a burglary /robbery gone wrong (which i give high odds to), and that some items were taken along with NG, it all seems like a lot of work for one guy.

those are both IF's, though. nothing that points clearly to multiple perps.

I also lean toward more than 1 as well. The backpack sorta makes me lean towards burglary in general, but this clearly was not ever going to be a smash & grab. Early on I believe, IIRC, there was mention of a back door & it possibly being left open & I wonder if entry was actually made back there by a second perp while Backpack Guy was up front with the lantana, preparing the exit route. Obviously this is just me spitballing but there's something about this entire situation that makes me think there was more than one perp. MOO
